    @PAD said: Yes. I hope it isn't another bad decision for IPXCore, after all they have been given a wide variety of choices and seemed to go with another fairly hidden provider with no big track record.

    NWNX is ChicagoVPS, not exactly a 'hidden provider'.

  • I think he meant 'secretive.'

    NWNX / ChicagoVPS / ColoCrossing

    shouldn't be a big deal... colocrossing is pretty reputable.

  • Hope you aren't merging with ChicagoVPS though.

    Good to see you are honest and open to your customers and community - it's always nice to see, thumbs up.

    @rds100 said: I'd say diversify. Put the shared hosting in one DC, the VPS servers in another. This way if shit happens again, at least you can send emails.

    I think Damian collects LEBs as well. He should send his emails out from them. ;-)

    @qtriangle said: @Damian, what are the updates for your VPS customers?

    When they should expect to get back, and would there be any other setup issues like change of IP etc?
    Thanks

    @HalfEatenPie said: But yeah the IP question would be interesting for me as well :P

    There will be an announcement later today. I need to confirm with Adam that our hardware is safe and in his possession.

    @kbar said: shouldn't be a big deal... colocrossing is pretty reputable.

    Indeed, that's why we went with NWNX... I don't really get the feeling ChicagoVPS is doing anything but growing, but if they do end up going away, it's still Colocrossing...

    We're not. We had a few offers to buy either our entire business, or select portions of it, but after seeing all the kind words from everyone in this thread, and the other thread about the 32mb plan, it 'recharged' me on wanting to keep going.

    @Oliver said: I think Damian collects LEBs as well. He should send his emails out from them. ;-)

    I do, but they get used for DNS :) I should put an email relay on them.

    Don't merge with ChicagoVPS, I don't want my 32mb to be 2048mb. That will kill the fun.

    Please be successful =)

    This! The fact that you're being so transparent about this entire process with not only your customers but the entire LET community is amazing on a very large number of levels.

  • Props to damian for making a good choice and being so open about his troubles. +1

    Unfortunately, we're not that far advanced, but I should have an announcement on a schedule of events within the hour.

  • UPDATE: NWNX has confirmed our colocation order. We are packaging and shipping the servers now.

    @dominicl said: Agreed.

    Disagreed.

    Potentially agreed.

  • LAKidLAKid Member

    will be cheaper actually carrying them by air.

  • rds100rds100 Member

    Please excuse my ignorance, but how far is it?

  • fvvfvv Member

    @Damian and @phxadam
    From a customer, thanks for all the updates and for working to get things back up.

    Sounds like some nasty lemons, so here's hoping your lemonade turns out well. Nothing but best wishes!

    Not by much... we're looking at about $350 per server.

    @Damian oh... driving is out of the question then.

  • @rds100 said: @Damian oh... driving is out of the question then.

    Not in America :P they are used to this big distance driving I think

  • DamianDamian Member

    @djvdorp said: they are used to this big distance driving I think

    Indeed we are, but not 3 entire days round-trip :)

  • Oh wow.

  • Woah this will give me a nice ping boost :)

    But why Buffalo? I thought you wanted to keep the servers somewhere where you live

    Good luck with the moving :)

  • prometeusprometeus Member, Host Rep

    @Damian So your deal should have been great to justify this move :-)

    If you take turns, possible to get it done in 2 days.
